To Our Readers.

We cannot too strongly urge upon our read
ers the necessity OF subscribing for family
weekly newspaper Of the first class-such, for
instance, as The INDEPENDENT, of New York.
Were we Obliged TO select one publication for
habitual and careful reading to the exclusion
Of all Others we should choose unhesitating-
ly THE INDEPENDENT. 1t is a newspaper,
magazine, and review, all In one. 1t is re-
ligious, a literary, an educational, story, an
art, a scientific, an agricultural q financial,
and q political paper combined. 1t has 80
folio pages and Il departments. No matter
what persons religion, politics or profession
may be, no matter what the age. sex, employ
ment or condition may be, The lNDEpEND-
ENT will prove helper, an instructor, an ed
ucator. Our readers can do no less than TO
send a postal for free specimen copy, or for
thirty cents the paper will be sent month,
enabling one to judge Of its merits more crit
ically. Its yearly subscription is $500, or two
years for $500.
Those who desire to subscribe for The
american Agriculturist as well as THE INDIE
PENDENT cannot make better bargain than
by accepting THE INDEPENDENTS offer TO
send both papers for one year for the sum Of
1915. Each subscriber will thus save seventy
five cents on the two papers.

C.IaRMlNG ACTRESSES.
THE LILY GIvKs PLACE TO THE ROSE
STAGE TRIALS AND TRIUMPHs.

There may have been a time. perhaps,
when the pallid lily WAS The type OF fe-
male beauty. 1t is not 81 to-day.
On the stage the most charming ac.
tressps are women of robust health.
Mrs. Langiry j. the best matinee at
traction on the stage so managers say,
because she is attractive Ia women rs
we'll as to men. She is famous walker
and All accomplished athle;e.
Two generations have ragged over the
beauty of Rose Coghlan. Sine is not
pretty, but she has the yiSor Of rude
health.
Fanny Davenport was always fasci-
Mating. ard is sill great favorite. As
Lady Gay Spanker she would catch her
DoUY in rapturous embrace ana
swing him three times around her, his
feet never touching the floor.
Great surprise is often expressed that
actresses are able to preserve their
health aud beauty in view of the terri
bic strain of their eXacting duties upon
physical and mental force.

ing Little Corinne," who has delighted

The really great actresses in emo
ti0nal parts are those who utterly a6an-

The strain they undergo is one that few,
outside of the profession, can under
stand.
Maude Granger WAS Obliged to aban-
don the stage temporarily by reason Of
il. She says: "The suffering then en-
dured, and the terrible condition was
in, can only be appreciated by those
women who have undergone the same
experience. 1t was while still suffering

fully, aud am happy to state that am
now completely restored to health and

MANY break down under the strain
and, like Sara Jewett, totally give out.
Physicians prescribe opiates which,
perhaps, give temporary relief only TO
make the final collapse more certain
and complete. Others are more FORUM
ate and find in that great remedy an in
fluence which controls life and health"
and, they are thus enabled TO succeed
in their highest ambitions.
